En Route reinforces North American management

En Route International is strengthening its North American management through a series of senior appointments, the company announced today.

"[En Route] has a solid base of business in North America and is looking to expand some of its successful European food and service concepts to the North American region by leveraging its global airline relationships," the company explained in a June 19 press release.

Executive Director Hamish Cook will be in charge of North American operations, sales and new product development, in addition to his current responsibilities of overseeing En Route's strategy, business and food development. Lorna Barlow will report to Cook in her role as VP Operations.

Maddison Wenzel was also recently hired as Innovation, Supplier and Product Development Manager, a role in which she is responsible for product development for the U.S. and Canadian markets. She will work closely with Business Development Manager Pendar Khosravi, who joined the business in 2017.

Robert Dalboth, Managing Director of En Route International, said in a statement: “We are all focused on continuing to strengthen our business sustainably and see lots of opportunity in the North American region given our current market position. I’m delighted Hamish has taken on this role and am looking forward to developing our operations here over the next few years.”

“As a progressive business, we don’t believe in standing still," Cook added. "I am really looking forward to working with our talented team in the region to grow what is a very important market for us”.
